Portable Hand Washing Stations in Harrisburg, South Dakota

A hand washing station turns a basic restroom setup into one that guests and crews actually feel good about using.

About This Service

Our freestanding stations hold their own fresh water supply and a wastewater tank, so they work anywhere a restroom unit works, no plumbing hookup needed. A general guideline is one station for every three to four restroom units at an event, with additional stations placed right at food service or bar areas regardless of how the restroom count works out, since that is where people expect to wash up before eating rather than walking across a site to find a sink.

On job sites, hand washing stations serve a different purpose than at events. Crews working with concrete, paint, chemicals, soil, or anything else that gets on the hands need a place to clean up before lunch or before driving home, and a station placed near the break area or site entrance gets used far more than one tucked next to the toilets. Multi-station sites benefit from spreading stations across separate work zones rather than clustering them all in one spot, so nobody has to walk far to reach one.

Servicing runs on the same schedule as the restroom units they accompany. Each visit refills the water tank, restocks soap and paper towels, and empties the wastewater tank so the unit does not run dry or overflow between visits, and we can bump up the frequency for stations that see heavy use.

Food vendors and caterers have a particular reason to plan for these stations rather than treating them as optional. Health inspectors and event organizers increasingly expect visible hand washing access near any food booth, and a station set right at the serving line does more good than one placed only near the restrooms across the grounds. We can deliver additional stations specifically for a vendor row separate from the main restroom count.

Stations also work well as a stopgap during construction projects before a permanent water line is run, or at outdoor recreation sites like campgrounds and trailheads where visitors expect basic hygiene facilities but there is no existing plumbing to tap into. In both cases the unit sets up in a few minutes with no digging or hookup work required.
